GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
S100A14 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
BCMP84, S100A15
Description
S100 calcium binding protein A14 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the S100 protein family which contains an EF-hand motif and binds calcium. The gene is located in a cluster of S100 genes on chromosome 1. Levels of the encoded protein have been found to be lower in cancerous tissue and associated with metastasis suggesting a tumor suppressor function (PMID: 19956863, 19351828).
